WHAT?? Remove Blink from the GAME??? Another nerf
So amidst all the weapon chaos... I stumbled across something I haven't seen anyone talking about on the forums. And if it has been discussed or pointed out already... sorry.
This quote right here, by Senior Design Lead Sage Merrill (found in the latest Bungie update)
[quote]trying to figure out how I can make Blink less frustrating to fight against. People keep showing up at my desk asking me when I’m going to remove Blink from the game, and I don’t want to do that, so back to the drawing board![/quote]
When I read this... that REALLY, I MEAN... REALLY solidified the end of this game for me. The last patch notes did it... but this just puts the final nail on the coffin.
What this shows me... is Bungie can't leave their hands off this game... and the things that make it fun and different. They cater to the WHINERS WAYYYYYY too much. I'm sorry, but this quote proves they will continue to destroy this game piece by piece until all the little kids are happy. Who knows, maybe this is the market they want to cater to. it's a mistake. EVERY game that ever caters to children (after being released for mature players) ends up dying.
And before you say git gud scrub: I have a titan and 2 hunter classes. and am mostly a golden gun user... I do like blink when I use it yes... but my complaint has NOTHING to do with taking away a perk I use to help me win.
EDIT: Anyone who is saying "he doesn't want to remove blink"... You are missing the point. The fact that it's coming across his desk means IT"S A POSSIBILITY. And then combine that with the fact they are still going to nerf it in some way... and they just can't stop F'ing with this game in areas that don't need messing with. And guess what?? if he can't find a way to nerf it... he may not want to remove it... but he may just have to.
Edit: fixed the unforgivable typo
-
You're immune when you blink. That should be fixed, then I think we'd all be happy with the shotgun nerf.
-
Stopped reading when you said you don't have a warlock. Master race scrub
-
it's like.. taking away running from the game. Everybody just walk..
-
Thats stupid i barley use blink and ad long as you dont suck you can deal with it so suck it up and stop whining

3 RepliesYou can't defend Blink. It's maddening to see people try to. This isn't a matter of opinion or "what feels right". This is basic game theory. In any game that involves space, teleportation is the most powerful ability a person can have. Again, this isn't an opinion, this is simply math. You're functionally breaking space-time and moving between vectors in a fraction of a second. This shoots a players offensive/defensive potentials through the roof as well as the speed as which they can read the map. This creates a massive information gap compared to any non-blink player. To reiterate, [i]this isn't opinion, this is math[/i]. In any competition environment that isn't an elimination game type. No player who is serious about maximizing their winning potential is going to choose a subclass that doesn't have blink. To choose otherwise would put them at a disadvantage in the current meta.

Oh uhm give a titan subclass blink or an exotic to blink and blam each subclass can blink.

-blam!- it. Nerf everything lolz

Wow...
-
Complaining before you even have a clue what he said means? Wow. Take a chill pill or something
-
I agree. Blink is fine as is. People just don't adapt and counter it by zoning users of it.
-
Im fine with it
-
3 RepliesBlinks not an issue. Shotgun range is and they're fixing that. Blink shotgun is especially good on bladedancer because of quick draw.
-
3 RepliesBetter remove bloody shouldercharge. Each class has its own movement mode
-
It said he wasn't removing it, it said "so back to the drawing board" which either means there just gonna change it a bit or they are going make something like it in it place

It's unfair and allows players to get close to you without factoring conventional risks, they are invincible while using it as the teleport instantaneously transports you within a foot of a person
-
They could just make the cool down take longer. Instead of people zig zagging all over the -blam!-ing place, it'll have to be used at a good time instead of being spammed. It's a work in progress. The game evolves.
-
Its not being removed. You talk about complaining like only one side does it, yet here you are complaining.

2 RepliesEdited by KK: 7/25/2015 11:55:26 PM"Blink is OP" "Blink is a crutch" "Blink is for the newbs that can't play" Who actually cares? Each class has its own abilities that do enough damage along with the blink. All the people bragging about being a PvP god, why don't you use your skill to take down a hunter using blink before they get too close? Too many complaints from the people that don't have said ability/weapon. People crying about blink/shotgun when they run around abusing a thorn, people without a thorn crying about people with a thorn etc. If people are as good as they make out then they shouldn't need to complain about any abilities. Just play the game and shoot some twats in the face! Imagine 20+ years ago what these crybabies would be like, complaining they missed a shot on NES duck hunt and nerf the -blam!-ing dog
-
how about you good good blink noob.
-
Lol u wrote all that because ur afraid ur game is changing?

1 ReplyThey won't remove it. He will probably do something like put a cooldown on [b]each[/b] blink jump, instead of allowing 2 blink jumps before each cooldown. I don't think a blink nerf will affect people who like blink that much tbh. It will just make them have to time their blink jumps slightly better.
-
6 RepliesWhat I think needs to happen is you can't shoot In the air after using blink this way people have to be on the ground to kill and it gives more time to react to blink shot gun
-
Ugh. Just give the -blam!-ing bitch titans a blink so this'll be over. They'll all do blink-shotty for a month, then everything will be fine.
-
All they should do is change the fact that blinkers can get out of grenades and rockets. I point blanked two blinkers with rockets today and they didn't die. A grenade that seeks should not miss them either.
